A Remembering Dinner is a way to honor those who have passed in a setting that supports story telling and recipe sharing. It is a way to celebrate the gifts and lessons that our beloved have imparted to us.
A Remembering Dinner is a gathering of those whose desire is to memorialize a loved one by sharing a dish that evokes memories of the person who has passed. Often, it is a dish the beloved prepared or requested others to prepare. Often it is through this process of memorializing, that participants move from grief to joy with others who have also known loss. A Remembering Dinner is a way to visit the tender spots where loss dwells and discover the delight in celebrating those who
no longer sit with us at the table.
It is my belief these recipes and stories become threads that help maintain the continuum , which we reach for in our humanity and the connection we seek with each other.
It is my wish that you use this website as a place where you share your experience by uploading images, stories and recipes after having enjoyed a
Remembering Dinner.
